This is normal.
let f ... = ...
let g ... = ...
The function g can use f but f cannot call g because g is not known at
that point. If f must also call g, then f and g are mutually
recursive and you should declare them as
let rec f ... = ...
and g ... = ...
You can also group your functions as methods of an object (these can
call each other) :
object(self)
method f ... = ... self#g ...
method g ... = ... self#f ...
end
